: When adjusting the seams between two panels on a S&G kayak I use a large
: [6" wide] drywall "putty knife" with 120 or 150 grit
: sandpaper stuck on the thin metal blade with double-sided tape. I have one
: with sandpaper both sides and one with sandpaper on one side only.

: Slide the papered blade between the panels and sand away. The angle between
: the joints is easy to see and control.

: I have not tried this on a stripper yet [soon I hope] but it should work
: easier than on a S&G where the tension between panel can cause binding.

: I'd be curious how well this works for bevelling strips. With the
: wider/softer wood [relative to 3mm luaun] a coarser sandpaper may do a
: quick job of fitting - you would be bevelling to faces at a time. Let me
: know how it works.

Hank,

Thanks for the great idea. I'll keep that in mind for future use.
